Objectives: Concepts of Object Orientation

• Review the basic principles of object orientation

• Review the basic concepts and terms of object orientation and the associated UML notation

• Review the strengths of object orientation • Review some basic UML modeling notation

6

Best Practices Implementation

• Object Technology helps implement these Best Practices.– Develop iteratively: tolerates changing

requirements, integrates elements progressively, facilitates reuse.

– Use component-based Architectures:architectural emphasis, component-based development.

– Model visually: easy understanding, easy modification.

7

What Is Object Technology?

• Object Technology– A set of principles guiding

software construction together with languages, databases, and other tools that support those principles. (Object Technology - A Manager’s Guide, Taylor, 1997)

8

Strengths of Object Technology

• A single paradigm– A single language used by users, analysts, designers,

and implementers• Facilitates architectural and code reuse• Models more closely reflect the real world

– More accurately describes corporate entities– Decomposed based on natural partitioning– Easier to understand and maintain

• Stability– A small change in requirements does not mean massive

changes in the system under development• Adaptive to change

5

9

What Is a Model?

• A model is a simplification of reality.

10

Why Do We Model?• We build models to better understand the system

we are developing.• Modeling achieves four aims. Modeling:

– Helps us to visualize a system as we want it to be.– Permits us to specify the structure or behavior of a

system.– Gives us a template that guides us in constructing a

system.– Documents the decisions we have made.

• We build models of complex systems because we cannot comprehend such a system in its entirety.

What Is an Object?• Informally, an object represents an entity,

either physical, conceptual, or software.

– Physical entity

– Conceptual entity

– Software entity

12

A More Formal Definition• An object is an entity with

a well-defined boundary and identity that encapsulates state and behavior.– State is represented by

attributes and relationships.– Behavior is represented by

operations, methods, and state machines.

13

An Object Has State• The state of an object is one of the possible conditions

in which an object may exist.• The state of an object normally changes over time.

14

An Object Has Behavior• Behavior determines how an object acts and

reacts.• The visible behavior of an object is modeled by

the set of messages it can respond to (operations the object can perform).

An Object Has Identity

• Each object has a unique identity, even if the state is identical to that of another object.

What Is Abstraction?

• The essential characteristics of an entity that distinguish it from all other kinds of entities

• Defines a boundary relative to the perspective of the viewer

• Is not a concrete manifestation, denotes the ideal essence of something

10

19

Example: Abstraction

Student Professor

Course Offering (9:00 AM, Monday-Wednesday-Friday) Course (e.g. Algebra)

20

What Is Encapsulation?

Improves Resiliency

Hide implementation from clients.Clients depend on interface.

22

What Is Modularity?

• Modularity is the breaking up of something complex into manageable pieces.

• Modularity helps people to understand complex systems.

Billing System

Course Catalog System

Student Management System

What Is Hierarchy?

Decreasing abstraction

Increasing abstraction

Asset

RealEstate

Savings

BankAccount

Bond

Elements at the same level of the hierarchy should be at the same level of abstraction.

13

25

What Is a Class?

• A class is a description of a set of objects that share the same attributes, operations,relationships, and semantics. – An object is an instance of a class.

• A class is an abstraction in that it– Emphasizes relevant characteristics.– Suppresses other characteristics.

26

Representing Classes in the UML

• A class is represented using a rectangle with compartments.

Professor- name- employeeID : UniqueId- hireDate- status- discipline- maxLoad

+ submitFinalGrade()+ acceptCourseOffering()+ setMaxLoad()+ takeSabbatical()

14

27

The Relationship Between Classes and Objects

• A class is an abstract definition of an object.– It defines the structure and behavior of each

object in the class.– It serves as a template for creating objects

• Objects are grouped into classes. Professor

28

What Is an Attribute?

• An attribute is a named property of a class that describes a range of values that instances of the property may hold.– A class may have any number of attributes or no

attributes at all.

Attributes

Student- name- address- studentID- dateOfBirth

15

29

What Is an Operation?• An operation is the implementation of a service

that can be requested from any object of the class to affect behavior.

• A class may have any number of operations or none at all.

What Is Polymorphism?

Manufacturer AManufacturer B

Manufacturer C

OO Principle:Encapsulation

The ability to hide many different implementations behind a single interface

• A package is a general purpose mechanism for organizing elements into groups.

• It is a model element that can contain other model elements.

• A package can be used– To organize the model under development.– As a unit of configuration management.

What Is a Package?

University Artifacts

18

35

• A combination of a package (can contain other model elements) and a class (has behavior)

• Realizes one or more interfaces which define its behavior

What is a Subsystem?

Subsystem Name

<<subsystem>>

Interface

36

• A non-trivial, nearly independent, and replaceable part of a system that fulfills a clear function in the context of a well-defined architecture

• A component may be – A source code component– A run time components or– An executable component

<<EXE>>ExecutableName

OO Principle:Encapsulation

What is a Component?

<<DLL>>ComponentNameComponent

Interface

19

37

• Components are the physical realization of an abstraction in the design

• Subsystems can be used to represent the component in the design

What Is an Association?• The semantic relationship between two

or more classifiers that specifies connections among their instances – A structural relationship, specifying that objects of one

thing are connected to objects of another

39

What Is Multiplicity?• Multiplicity is the number of instances of one

class relates to ONE instance of another class.• For each association, there are two multiplicity

decisions to make, one for each end of the association.– For each instance of Professor, many Course Offerings

may be taught.– For each instance of Course Offering, there may be

either one or zero Professor as the instructor.

What Is Aggregation?• An aggregation is a special form of

association that models a whole-part relationship between an aggregate (the whole) and its parts.– An aggregation “Is a part-of” relationship.

• Multiplicity is represented like other associations.

44

What Is Generalization?

• A relationship among classes where one class shares the structure and/or behavior of one or more classes

• Defines a hierarchy of abstractions in which a subclass inherits from one or more superclasses– Single inheritance– Multiple inheritance

• Is an “is a kind of” relationship

23

45

Example: Single Inheritance• One class inherits from another

Example: Multiple Inheritance

Use multiple inheritance only when needed and always with caution!

• A class can inherit from several other classes.

Multiple Inheritance

24

Inheritance leverages the similarities among classes

What Gets Inherited?• A subclass inherits its parent’s attributes,

operations, and relationships• A subclass may:

– Add additional attributes, operations, relationships

– Redefine inherited operations (use caution!)• Common attributes, operations, and/or

relationships are shown at the highest applicable level in the hierarchy

What Are Stereotypes?

• Stereotypes define a new model element in terms of another model element.

• Sometimes, you need to introduce new things that speak the language of your domain and look like primitive building blocks.

Class<<s tereotype>> Stereotype

26

What Are Notes?

• A comment that can be added to include more information on the diagram

• May be added to any UML element• A ‘dog eared’ rectangle • May be anchored to an element with a

dashed lineMaintainScheduleForm

There can be up to one MaintainScheduleForm per user session.

PersistentClass{persistence} anObject : ClassA

{location=server}

Tagged Values• Extensions of the properties, or specific

attributes, of a UML element• Some properties are defined by UML

– Persistence– Location (e.g., client, server)

• Properties can be created by UML modelers for any purpose

• What is an object and what is a class? What is the difference between the two?

• What is an attribute?• What is an operation?• What is an interface? What is

polymorphism?

54

Review: Concepts of Object Orientation (continued)

• What is a package?• What is a subsystem? How does it relate to

a package? How does it relate to a class?• Name the four basic UML relationships and

describe each.• Describe the strengths of object orientation• What are stereotypes?

Part II

Review of Object Technology: Basics of Objects, Definitions, Effects on SDLC

56

Basics of Objects

• The newer object world concentrates on: Encapsulation, Message Passing & Polymorphism, and Classes & Inheritance

• The older structured world concentrated on sequence, selection, and iteration

29

57

Basics of Objects

• First what is an object?• A software packet that abstracts the salient

behavior and characteristics of a real object into a software package that simulates the real object

58

Basics of Objects

Examples of objects:• Number • Drop Down List Box • Window• ATM (Automated Teller Machine)• Customer

30

59

Basics of Objects

Types of objects:Example Type

• Number primitive• List Box control• Window GUI• ATM system• Customer business

60

Basics of Objects

Characteristic of objects:Example Characteristic

• Number 5• List Box location• Window size• ATM amount on hand• Customer balance

31

61

Basics of Objects

Behavior of objects:Example Behavior

• Number add • Drop Down List Box drop down• Window open• ATM give cash• Customer pay bill

62

Basics of Objects

Encapsulation of objects:(nouns) (adjectives) (verbs)Example Characteristic Behavior

• Number 5 add • List Box location drop down• Window size open• ATM amount on hand give cash• Customer balance pay bill

32

63

Basics of Objects

The Three Keys to Object Technology• A software object has both characteristics

and behavior encapsulated in it• Software objects communicate by messages• Software objects can inherit characteristics

and behavior just like many real objects

64

Basics of Objects

Encapsulation:• The containment of the data behind a

software membrane consisting of methods. The data can only be accessed through the encapsulated behavior

33

65

Basics of Objects

Message:• A signal from a client object requesting

services from a server object • The message may contain arguments • The server object may return a response

66

Basics of Objects

Polymorphism:• Messages mean different things to different

objects:Print Word documentPrint Excel document

• This means different implementations can be hidden behind a common interface

34

67

Basics of Objects

Class:• A Collection of like objects• A template for defining new object

instances• The behaviors reside in the class• Behavior is implemented by methods

68

Classes & Inheritance

Instance:• A term used to refer to an software object• It is a common synonym of object

35

69

Classes & Inheritance

Inheritance:• A technique to allow classes to use a parent

classes methods and data• Inheritance can have many levels

70

The Ten Big Definitions

• Object - A software package• Method - An objects procedure • Message - A signal from one object to

another• Class - A template to create objects• Subclass - A special case of a class

36

71

The Ten Big Definitions

• Instance - An objects other name• Inheritance - A mechanism to use

another objects innards• Encapsulation - Data & methods Together • Abstraction - Capturing behaviors &

characteristics• Polymorphism - Hiding alternative methods

behind a common interface

72

Effect on SDLC

• SDLC - System Development Life Cycle• A system must be developed that

encompasses the theory of objects• The program code must be divided into

methods that are placed in objects with business meanings

37

73

Effect on SDLC

• These objects are called domain objects• Together they make up the business or

domain model• If model is created correctly the system is

very easy to maintain

74

Effect on SDLC

Many languages now support this model• Smalltalk• C++• Java

38

75

Effect on SDLC

Many CASE tool vendors also support this model• Rational Corporation * http://www.rational.com/

• Popkin Software http://www.popkin.com/

• Peter Coad http://www.powerj.com/

* We will be using Rational Rose (or a similar tool for business/application modeling)

76

Effect on SDLC

• “The most single important ability in object- oriented analysis and design is to skillfully assign responsibilities to software components”

• “… a close second in terms of importance is finding suitable objects or abstractions”

• Craig Larman - author of Applying UML & Patterns

39

77

Summary

• If you have not guessed it by now, the points are:– Encapsulation– Message Passing & Polymorphism– Classes & Inheritance

• The ten big definitions must be understood• The outcome of the SDLC is a business

object model

78

Part III

Review of SDLC

40

79

What is a SDLC

System Development Life Cycle:• It is developing a computer system• It concerns a process which takes from two

months to two years• This is called a system development life

cycle

80

What is a SDLC

There are two forms:• Rapid (Prototype)

– Plan and Elaborate– Developmental Cycle 1– Developmental Cycle 2

• And Waterfall (classical)

41

81

What is a SDLC

• Waterfall (classical)– Requirements– Analysis– Design– Construction– Implementation

82

What is a SDLC

Both forms are followed by a maintenance cycle:

• Maintenance is the most expensive part• If all the steps are done carefully

maintenance is reduced• For maintenance to be effective ,

documentation must exist

42

83

What is a SDLC

The system really consists of two parts:• Model

– Prototypes– Diagrams and supporting Documents

• System– Hardware– Software

84

Definitions

Prototype:• A first system usually done with a rapid

development tool• Usually has limited functionality• Users can see results very quickly

43

85

Definitions

• Planning• The process of gathering what is needed to

solve a business problem• Includes a feasibility study• Includes project steps

86

Definitions

• Analysis• The process of determining detail

requirements in the form of a model

44

87

Definitions

• Design• The process of drawing blueprints for a new

system

88

Definitions

• Construction• The actual coding of the model into a

software package• Uses one of three languages:

– Java– Smalltalk– C++

45

89

Definitions

• Implementation• Doing whatever is necessary to startup a

system• Includes:

– Database – Networks– Hardware configuration

90

Definitions

• Maintenance• Doing whatever is necessary to keep a

system running• Includes:

– repairs to correct errors– enhancements to accommodate changes in

requirements

46

91

Deliverables

• Deliverables consist mainly of diagrams and their supporting documentation

• For example:– Models that emphasize dynamics– Models that emphasize structure– Models can be used for specifying the outcome

of analysis– Models can be used for specifying the outcome

of design

92

Deliverables

Planning:• System Functions• A simple list of each requirement a system

must do• For example:

– record video rental– calculate fine

47

93

Deliverables

Planning: • System Attributes• A simple property describing each

requirement of a system• For example:

– record video rental under 15 seconds– calculate fine and return response in 5 seconds

94

Deliverables

• Planning: Environmental Diagram

48

95

Deliverables

Planning: • Prototype• Recall it is a first system usually done with

a rapid development tool• Since users can see results very quickly they

will pay attention• Final product is seldom created in same tool

as the prototype

96

Deliverables

Analysis:• Use case• Shows the dynamics between the users

(actors) of the system and the system itself• This is a narrative representation

49

97

Deliverables

Analysis:• Conceptual Diagram• Shows the structure of the objects and their

relationships• This is a graphical representation

98

Deliverables

Analysis:• System Sequence Diagram• Shows the dynamics between the users

(actors) of the system and the system itself• This is a graphical representation

50

99

Deliverables

Analysis:• Contracts• Shows the state of each object before each

action• This is a narrative representation

100

Deliverables

Design:• Interaction Diagram• Shows the interaction between objects• This is a graphic representation• It is a dynamic blueprint

51

101

Deliverables

Design:• Class Diagram• Shows the structure between objects• Shows the structure inside objects• This is a graphic representation• It is a static blueprint

102

Summary

UML provides a standard for the following artifacts:

• Use Case (Dynamic Analysis Output)• Conceptual Model (Static Analysis Output)• Interaction Diagram (Dynamic Design

Blueprint)• Class Diagram (Static Design Blueprint)

53

105

What it is

• A picture containing all the important players (Actors)

• Includes players both inside and outside of the system

• Actors are a critical component• External events are a second critical

component

106

Creating the Diagram

• To create an environmental diagram • 1. Identify all the initiating actors • 2. Identify all the related external events

associated with each actor

54

107

Why it is used

• A diagram is needed to show the context or scope of the proposed system

• At this time actors and external events are the critical components

• It is helpful to include all the participants as well

108


• 3. Identify all the participating Actors• These actors may be inside (internal) or

outside (external) to the system

55

109


• Examples of an internal actor– Clerk who enters the purchase into a Point of

Sale terminal– Clerk who places paper in the printer– Accountant who audits report

110


• Examples of an external actor– Accountant who audits report– A credit authorizing service– A DMV check for renting a car

56

111


• 4. Draw a cloud• 5. Then draw initiating actors on the left of

the cloud• 6. Then draw participating external actors

outside the cloud• 7. Then draw participating internal actors

inside the cloud• Recall actors are stick figures

112


• 8. Lastly connect the initiation actors to the cloud

• 9. Label each connection with an external event name

• 10. It is not necessary to label connections to the participating external actors; just connect them

57

113


• An example from the textbook• First draw a cloud

Summary

• The environmental diagram is a useful to depict a lot of useful information

• At a glance it shows all the critical entities (actors) that interact with the system
